Fiduciary Risk Management

A “fiduciary” is a person who is charged with the management and operation of a qualified retirement plan. They discharge their duties for the sole purpose of securing (protecting) the future benefits of participants and beneficiaries.

In today’s volatile investment climate, an institutional fiduciary faces a dynamic and challenging environment. Plan sponsors need to pay particularly close attention to their fiduciary responsibilities. Personal liability, complex laws and regulations, lack of fee transparency, conflicts of interest, and increased scrutiny by investors and regulators represent just a few of the trends that must be addressed. Plan sponsors may be aware of their responsibilities to their plans, yet often they lack the resources and expertise to recognize and mitigate fiduciary risk.
